Lemuria and Atlantis

Blog entry by Maine Ghost Hunters Spiritual Team Lead, David.

The Legend of Lemuria is one of an ancient lost civilization which existed prior to and during the time of Atlantis. Physically, it is believed that it existed largely in the Southern Pacific, between North America and Asia/Australia. Lemuria is also sometimes referred to as Mu, or the Motherland (of Mu). At its peak of its civilization, the Lemurian people were both highly evolved and very spiritual. While concrete physical evidence of this ancient continent may be difficult to find, many people “know” that they have a strong connection to Lemuria.

Approximately 14,000 years ago, the culture known as Lemuria was thriving. (Prior to 2000 years ago, data and time recordings were not taken – so all times are approximate). There were also other cultures on Earth, such as Atlantis, which were thriving as well. The holy people or the prophets of the time began to be realize that something was changing. They began receiving information that the Earth was going to go through a very dramatic shift. The shift that they were referring to was what we call the Great Flood, also known as the destruction of Atlantis.

The basic beliefs of Lemuria were the belief in a higher power, love and respect for each other and love and respect for the Earth. That is the very basic foundation of spirituality. That was the spirituality of the ancients and that is the spirituality that is awakening within you. There was a knowing within every Lemurian that all life was harmonious and worked with heart rather than the separated mind/head space. The important concepts were unity, community, awareness, centeredness, absolute love, respect, love of others and unconditional love.

The Lemurians understood in the future that the flood and earthquake was not going to happen on the outside world but within each individual. It would be an individual’s earthquake, crumbling of belief systems that no longer serve the old EGOIC ways. So in a sense, there is going to be destruction and the ending of a cycle. (This cycle in taught in Awakened Children course). The understanding in Lemuria was that ‘as above, so below; from within, to without’. Therefore when there is an earthquake within the person there is a division and breaking up of information to create a new world – this would come in the form of relationship upheavals, marital affairs and more such as economic crisis. The flood is emotions – the grief of disconnecting from the absolute empowerment/God and this could be triggered by anything. The tsunami was a huge wave emotions that was life changing and would transform the person in to self-realization and enlightenment. The main transformation was to LOVE OF SELF and being able to let go unawaken emotions such as fear, greed, possessive, jealousy and more. Along with this came an energy known for many centuries called Kundalini. This psychic energy has been written about for thousands of years. It’s purpose was to awaken a person to the God consciousness and their soul to a genesis of creating the world they wanted. This was the key, (known in Egyptian days as the ankh) to conscious creation. Kundalini has the capacity to ‘wash’ away our deepest tensions, eliminate our misunderstandings (lessons and beliefs) about our true nature, and to expand the flow of creative energy and consciousness within us. It is the seat of absolute knowledge . This energy is also seen as sexual energy and awakens the primordial female energy. When this energy is released, there is a direct transmission of spiritual energy which gives spiritual freedom. It is linked to the descent of grace (love). The knowledge of Lemuria was that we create our own world and if we see it outside of ourselves we see it within.

After the violent volcanic explosions which caused Lemuria to sink into the south pacific ocean, many of the surviving inhabitants reached Fiji, New Zealand, Hawaii, Marquises Islands and South America and for a time carried on their ancient traditions, incorporating them with the traditions of the locals. They were viewed by the more primitive native peoples as godlike beings and have eventually been relegated by history to mythological beings. The Hawaiians, Tahitians and Maori people of New Zealand have folklore which alludes to an ancient island homeland Mu or Ka Lu inhabited by powerful but peace loving people who lived in plenty and talked to the Gods.
